🌍 Is Your Business Ready for the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD)? The EU’s CSDDD (Directive 2024/1760 https://lnkd.in/dQ-TT2JG) is set to transform how companies manage environmental and human rights impacts in their operations and supply chains. The directive primarily applies to large companies, with compliance deadlines phased based on size and turnover: 🔹 2027: Companies with over 1,000 employees and €450 million global turnover. 🔹 2028: Companies with over 500 employees and €900 million turnover. 🔹 2029: Companies with 250+ employees and €450 million turnover. While SMEs are generally not directly included, many will be indirectly impacted as suppliers to larger entities are required to comply. The CSDDD mandates companies to establish and maintain robust due diligence systems to identify, prevent, mitigate, and remediate adverse impacts on human rights and the environment. Additionally, companies must align climate strategies with EU net-zero goals, including time-bound climate transition plans. Non-compliance can lead to significant penalties, with fines of up to 5% of global turnover and civil liability provisions enabling affected parties to claim damages.   At Positive Organization, we understand the complexities of CSDDD compliance and offer tailored solutions to make it accessible and manageable: 🔹 Custom Compliance Roadmaps: Clear, step-by-step guidance tailored to your company’s unique needs. 🔹 Financial Support Assistance: Help accessing grants and planning cost-effective compliance strategies. 🔹 Sector-Specific Expertise: Tailored frameworks for industries ranging from manufacturing to technology. 🔹 Training Programs: Workshops to equip your team with skills in due diligence and sustainability reporting. 🔹 Long-Term Support: Ongoing monitoring to ensure continued compliance and progress.
